Rhythm Kids® is the next musical step for your child (ages 4.5 to 8) with a parent or caregiver.  Each week we drum, sing, play rhythm instruments, and begin to play music-based games.  Rhythm Kids® guides children toward developmentally appropriate music and movement activities, where they can begin to take charge, lead others, and be musically creative, as they:

  • make up their own drumming patterns
  • invent new ways to play rhythm instruments (shakers, sticks, etc.);
  • create movement ideas for songs;
  • and even take a drum solo!

Rhythm Kids® follows through on the Music Together® vision to help children complete the pathway of early childhood music development from birth through age eight.

Classes include:

  • Weekly Zoom class and/or online classes
  • Animal Collection Songbook and 2 CD's each semester
  • Access to online drum-play videos and other material

Your child will:

  • Explore the world of rhythm through movement, instrument play, and song
  • Develop basic rhythm skills, like keeping the beat, improvising, ensemble play, and soloing
  • Learn to create, cooperate, and express themselves musically

Rhythm Kids® students are required to purchase a djembe for children to use at home and to bring to class each week. Drums can be purchased by contacting the office.  Just add hands!
